ExternalTest vs. Production

Emissary/provider context Meaning What it does not prove
Emissary Sandbox Non-production tenant environment. It does not automatically mean AEAT ExternalTest.
Fiscal Simulator Local/simulated provider response path. It is not authority communication.
AEAT ExternalTest Official authority test destination for a fiscal operation. Acceptance is not Production validation or certification.
AEAT Production Live authority destination requiring explicit deployment and legal readiness. Endpoint configuration alone does not authorize or enable transmission.

The Worker resolves the destination from each persisted fiscal operation/provider configuration rather than a process-wide environment switch. The same logical presenter credential reference can be explicitly configured for separate destinations when applicable.

  • Production submissions are disabled by default.
  • Explicit Worker opt-in and persisted provider enablement are separate safeguards.
  • Issuer identity, certificate/presenter identity, authorization, active representation, jurisdiction and compliance readiness must all be satisfied.
  • This documentation does not enable Production or provide legal authorization.
